We look at our vinyl records as precious collectibles. Some hang their records on the wall as decor, some have them placed in cases in an attempt to preserve them- but what about the music that is actually on the vinyl? The music on your vinyl records can be converted to a digital format, making it extremely convenient to listen to your favorite oldies anytime, anywhere!

Vinyl records have been iconic throughout time, and are symbolic of the music industry. Here are Three Surprising Facts About Vinyl Records You Probably Didn't Know (credit: NearSay)

The Origin of Vinyl Records can be Traced to 19th Century France:
In 1857 French scientist Leon Scott developed the ‘phonoautograph’
which used a vibrating diaphragm to record sound waves on paper. The
initial intention was for a visual analysis but it laid the foundation
for the gramophone.

There IS a Difference in Sound Between Black and Colored Vinyl:
While colored vinyl is extremely collectable, there is an actual sonic
difference between them and normal black vinyl. Clear and colored discs
attain more pops and degrade faster when played.

The Largest Record Collection on File Featured More Than 1 Million LPs: Paul Mawhinney is believed to possess the largest record collection in the world, featuring over 1.5 million.
